4 days out drinking cream of mushroom soup, too soon?



Recommended Posts

Hello...My surgery on 25th. You guys sound like you're doing well, congratulations! I can't wait to join you on the other side

I'm 4 days out and able to drink some cream of mushroom Soup. I sip slowly, but I have no problems drinking it. Is it too soon for me? Anyone else move this quickly? I feel hungry today for the first time. I am drinking my Protein Shakes and Water as prescribed.

opinions?

Cream Soups are part of a full liquid diet so that is no problem (unless there are chunks in it :) )

It's a full liquid so should be okay and a nice break from shakes! I was able to drink it then. Congrats on your progress!

Is it on your doctor's list of approved things to eat and drink? If so, then go ahead and have it with any little bits strained out. If it is not, I wouldn't

I ate cream of every kind of Soup I could find in my full liquid stage. I diluted it with Water or milk, strained out the chunks and added Unjury unflavored Protein Powder. My big thing was I never drank/ate anything that didn't have Protein in it. Even made popsicles out of Protein Shakes. After I hit 60g each day I would add in some herbal Decaf tea or juice or Vitamin water if needed to make sure I hit 64oz fluids.

How about yogurt?

My surgeon's nut strongly encouraged drinkable yogurt starting day 4. Plain Siggi's and kefir were the only ones I found not loaded with sweeteners and a bunch of other extraneous ingredients. I used Protein powder to flavor. Regular Greek yogurt was allowed once I was in pureed stage.....3 weeks out.

But every dr has different postop diet plans, so I'd check with yours first.

I was allowed strained creamed Soups day 3, as part of my full liquids.< /p>

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
